provided that the request for such disclosure is proper and the disclosure does not exceed that
which is required. In the event of any disclosure under (b) above, the Service Provider shall
furnish a copy of this Agreement to anyone to whom it is required to make such disclosure and
shall promptly advise the City in writing of each such disclosure.
In the event that the Service Provider ceases to perform services for the City, or the City so
requests for any reason, the Service Provider shall promptly return to the City any and all
information described hereinabove, including all copies, notes and/or summaries (handwritten or
mechanically produced) thereof, in its possession or control or as to which it otherwise has
access.
The Service Provider understands and agrees that the City’s remedies at law for a breach of the
Service Provider’s obligations under this Confidentiality Agreement may be inadequate and that
the City shall, in the event of any such breach, be entitled to seek equitable relief (including
without limitation preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and specific performance) in
addition to all other remedies provided hereunder or available at law.
